                <text>"In the early 1880s Father Patrick H. Ryan lived in the Tom Magirl home while forming a parish and building a church. The church foundations are still visible in Calvary Cemetery on highway 13, about two miles south of Ryan. Completed about 1882, the church was named for Saint Michael, and the place was called Belmont. […]. Father Ryan encouraged other Irish to settle in the area, and a town began on the Steve McAleer farm. It was named for Father Ryan as he helped the Catholics north and west to form a new parish. A small frame church in Ryan was finished in 1885 and named for Saint Patrick."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; - Kurt, Rev. Msgr. Edgar, “Parish Profile #101,” &lt;i&gt;The Witness&lt;/i&gt;, November 27, 1988.</text>

Construction of the church began the following spring and they celebrated Mass in their new church on Christmas 1909. The church was dedicated to the Holy Family the next year by Bishop John P. Carroll of Helena, Montana. He had been a companion of Father Dougherty on the Archdiocesan Mission Band.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“Holy Family Parish owes its beginning and many years of its existence to its close neighbors, the monks of New Melleray Abbey. Because the people had little funds and the monastery wished to help them have their own church, one of the monks appealed to his wealthy sister in Europe for a donation which made possible the building of a small stone church. The parish continued to be taken care of by the monks, and a larger church became necessary. So a frame church was built at the north end of the present cemetery. That church was replaced 20 years later by the present brick structure, which was dedicated to the Holy Family in 1889 by Bishop Hennessy.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Mass in home or school continued until they built a church holding eight pews. Two ladies of the parish deserve the credit for getting the church built. Mrs. Mary Ryan, who was in her eighties, and Mrs. McElmeel went house to house soliciting funds. The date of building the frame church is not recorded. The first baptism of record was administered on March 25, 1883, by Father J. F. Richardson, an assistant at Saint Raphael Cathedral in Dubuque.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“North Buena Vista clings to the hillsides of the great river, which often offered better transportation than the twisting valley roads. While Father Garrett T. Nagle was pastor of Holy Cross, 24 families pledged support for a small frame church, which was built of lumber from the surrounding hills. When it was dedicated in October 1905, it was placed under the protection of the Immaculate Conception.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“North Washington in Chickasaw County was established as a trading center in the early 1850s. As the number of settlers increased, they saw a need for a church. Then the death of a child was the occasion for Paul Roethler to donate a portion of land for church and cemetery, and that was evidently the beginning of Immaculate Conception Parish. It was not until 1863 that a church was built, the first Catholic church in the county. On Sundays when no missionary priest came to celebrate Mass, the people gathered in the log church and prayed and sang under the direction of a fellow parishioner.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“Saint Boniface Parish traces its beginning to the first Mass offered in the village of New Vienna by Bishop Mathias Loras on Jan. 6, 1846. They were a community of 17 German families who had settled along the North Fork of the Maquoketa River about 30 miles northeast of Dubuque. In addition to Bishop Loras, a Dominican missionary by the name of Father G. J. Allemann and Father George Reffe cared for the new parish. The first baptisms were recorded by Father Allemann and Bishop Loras. The first church built of logs in 1848 was replaced five years later by a larger building of solid stone.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
